Quickick from LSU came first. Gatorade just claims to be the original.

Bengal punch*

The GOAT of sports drinks, created for the LSU football team in 1958 before Gatorade. Suck it, Gatahs.

It wasn't a novel idea, but, Dr. Cade found the winning formula and the product took off.

By far the worst sports drink of all-time




However, they had the best commercial when Deion is playing soccer and signs the red card.

And knew how to market the product and look where it is today.

Gatorade> Powerade

I can remember what Gatorade came in glass containers. 32 ounce size, I believe.
